Based on the hierarchical characteristics of passengers transfer behavior and the statedependent queuing model, the D-M/G/C/C queuing network simulation model was put forward for simulating the coordination of subjective passenger behavior and objective distribution environment. Then, the generation method and algorithm of the model is elaborated. In case study, the simulation results are consi...

Rail transit with its high passenger capacity and high efficiency has become one of the preferred alternatives to automobile travel. This is evident in the increasing patronage of rail travel especially in urban areas. As a result, many railway stations experience high levels of pedestrian congestion especially during the morning and afternoon peak periods. Traditional design and evaluation pro...

China Railway consists of eighteen regional bureaus, geographically distributed across China, with each regional bureau having their own regional Data Center. Physically distributed and managed at a regional level, the information system of China Railway is a highly complex distributed mission critical system, integrated in networks but largely isolated in term of system resources with applicat...

Travel time information is a vital component of many intelligent transportation systems (ITS) applications. In recent years, the number of passengers travels in train & number of trains in India has increased tremendously. Due to the increase in number of trains the train times may be delayed and the passengers have to wait at railway stations. A desirable strategy to deal with such issues is t...

This article presents the results of a study on stress-strain state metropolitan railway station structure without side platforms during construction upper arch middle tunnel using in-situ reinforced concrete. The was conducted systematic approach methodology based full factorial experiment plan, with subsequent processing calculation mathematical statistical methods and regression analysis to ...

A framework for assessing the usage and level-of-service of rail access facilities is presented. It consists of two parts. A dynamic demand estimator allows to obtain time-dependent origin-destination flows within pedestrian facilities. Using that demand, a traffic assignment model describes the propagation of pedestrians through the station, providing an estimate of prevalent traffic condition...

Continuous welded turnouts are important for CWR track through the railway station. According to equivalent resistance and non-linear theories and the principle of force diagram, a new method of theoretical calculation for continuous welded turnouts was developed. The continuous welded turnouts designed and installed according to the new theory behaved fairly well. The data collected on sites b...

Sub-Inspector of Police, Fatehuddin, a strong, robust man, doing duty at the Railway Station, Dehra Dun, slipped backwards on the greasy pavement near the latrine on the 31st March 1906, and in endeavouring to recover himself, fractured his left patella transversely. When brought to hospital, the man[\vas unable to stand or to raise the left leg, and the fragments of patella were found to be wi...

This paper presents database structures with fast access time and easy extensibility for railway-station data storage. These structures will help to build optimal strategies for reconstruction plans and provide data for design software, such as the world famous ARCHICAD, which is straightforward in using in designing architectural restoration, based on pre-existent architectural plans. The impl...

Restructuring of European railway companies has resulted in creating new subjects within railway systems infrastructure managers (IM) on the one hand and railway operators (RO) on the other. In this paper we examine the efficiency and rank different business strategies of railway infrastructure managers using the combined AHP/DEA method. Different strategies include different number of paths al...
